18 Embarrassing Slip-Ups of World Leaders

18. Bill Clinton Dozes Off

Like Bill Clinton, Prince Phillip is known for his love of naps and has often been pictured catching some shut eye during various outings. In 2002, during a Royal visit to Australia, there were no doubt many who wished the Prince had taken one of his naps instead of going to a cultural display for Australiaâ€™s aboriginal peoples. During the visit, the Prince reportedly turned to one of the founders of the cultural park and asked; â€œDo you still throw spears at each other?â€ Prince Philip is known to have a sense of humor which can border on the politically incorrect and some believe he was referring to either the inter-tribal warfare which occurred in Queensland in the past or the long-retired practice of testing young warriorsâ€™ manhood by throwing spears at them. In any event, the comment made more than a few people cringe.
